The 16th Nordic Meeting on Tropical Botany was held on the 10-12 August 2016 at the University of Turku in Finland. ​​The Nordic Tropical Botany meetings have traditionally provided an enjoyable and relatively informal chance to get to know others working in this broad research area, whether students or established scientists.​

The program included two days of presentations on all aspects of tropical botany. These were followed by a one-day excursion into the nearby archipelago, where we enjoyed the region's plant life and scenery. We visited the island of Seili and the beautiful oak forest at Lenholm Nature Reserve.
